What is a Pollen Press

There are different types of hash. One type that would use a pollen press is compacted kief. This type is just trichomes pressed together.
 
I have never used a press.. and my hash always looks, smells, and hits very well. The only complaint I have it the hardness of my hash, it is not as soft (like playdough) as some I have seen.
 
What are the presses made out of?

Would you guys be more inclined to buy a nice shiny stainless steel model or one made from aluminum? Or does not matter?

Essentially there are two variants. One being a lil tube with plastic plates that you simply screw the edge to apply pressure (pressing the kief). The other is the big huge hand crankable million lb hand-press that makes discs of hash.

If (some) aluminums are treated right, they are approximately the same hardness and near the same duribility as steel. I see no difference.. news paper, cellophane, and a rolling pin works fine if you're doing small scale.
 
Basically, pollen press makes your kief a solid hash (debatable). Il be gettin one soon as I have a fair bit of kief saved up.
 
10mm pollen press can also be used to make your own supplement pills with cool shapes and designs. you dont want one that screws apart if you wanna make alot of press tablets quickly. you would want the one thats just a tube, a stand and a rod you hit with a hammer a few times per pill. it doesnt require time and heat like some pollen presses. just remeber if you are making coloured tablets use wheat, gluton and nut free food colour powder plus a good clean binding agent and make sure your active ingredient is properly mixed up especially with psychedelics.
